cars for sale. In addition, a chain link fence was requested to be erected
on part of an area in Block 21, El Portal Sub., with 100 ft. open on 6th
Ave. for display primarily of new cars and trucks.

claimed that this operation is no different from their presently permitted
use, that it would not be a used -car lot, that the 6th Ave. frontage would
have decorative posts so placed as to prevent cars from being driven off the
area, that they would like to light this lot and have a sign on it. Because of
certain restrictions in the Zoning Ordinance concerning used car lots and
the conducting of a business within a building enclosed on all sides, the
Planning Board deferred action on the proposal for further study and until
a full Board is present.
